NVIDIA 331.20 Supports New Kernels, NvFBCOpenGL

Phoronix: NVIDIA 331.20 Supports New Kernels, NvFBCOpenGL

The NVIDIA 331.20 Linux graphics driver has been released today. The NVIDIA 331.20 Linux driver has a workaround to support the Linux 3.11 and 3.12 kernels along with introducing NvFBCOpenGL. The new NvFBCOpenGL is for NVIDIA OpenGL frame-buffer capturing that's high-performance and low-latency...

" Sadly, however, NvFBC and NvIFR are private APIs... While NVIDIA is nice sometimes like in the case of making the VDPAU video encode/decode API open to the community, NvFBCOpenGL is not. Anyone interested in the interfaces for using this new NVIDIA library must contact the company for details."

Direct recording would be super useful for what I'm doing. If its performance is better than glc, it would be awesome. Though it's weird that they have a library, and no actual way of making use of it...

On my case i test simplerecorder but i try some capture programs, but after testing i stay with vokoscreen, capture without minor problems on my machine (I capture only video but impact fps seriously: 30 or more percentage depend title)

This is my video list reproduction with some uploaded videos about wine testing

The NVIDIA OpenGL-based Framebuffer Capture (NvFBCOpenGL) library is all about high performance and low-latency captures while also having support to encode the composited frame-buffer of an X11 output

This seems come nvidia shadowplay equal to linux???????

Sadly this upgrades its privative but talking seriously, NVIDIA dont want free technologies but if possible using how strategy marketing and this situation i dont think so change in future but privative driver offers more features, on my case performance and features is more important how is driver is free or not
